Appeal for information on slate quarries

I AM researching the story of the slate quarries at Curraghalickey, Drinagh, Co Cork, where slate was quarried at least as early as 1841.

Two companies ran operations there between 1913 and 1962 - Benduff, Froe and Madrana Slate Quarries Ltd and Drinagh Slate Quarries Company Ltd.

As part of my work, I would like to compile a list of names of those who worked there in any capacity, at various times.
